Market Insights

The following commentary is from Sprott Asset Management LP

Sprott Asset Management's strategy is to identify emerging trends before others do. Not for the sake of simply being contrarian; but to give us a competitive edge. While our market views and calls are often unpopular at the time we make them, we have the conviction to take the "road less travelled". Our unique macroeconomic views help us find the best sectors and companies to invest in and avoid or short the least attractive. This focus on macro trends helped Sprott identify the opportunities that lay ahead in precious metals (2000), energy (2005), and avoid the asset bubbles that popped in technology (2001), and the financial and housing sectors (2008). Our history of outperformance speaks for itself.
